missed episode last week

[Kerith]

I watched last night's episode and realized I must have missed a good one last week. Can someone fill me in? What's wrong with the little boy? And how did Nurse Na and the grumpy head nurse end up sleeping together? Anything else important?

Thanks!!!

That would be ep 9?

Yeon-kyeong's son has laryngitis. One of the nurses asks Yun-ho if Dr. Lee is a friend or relative, since he made a special trip to the hospital to find an available bed (Yun-ho recalled this last night).

The staff had gone out after the talent show, and had quite a few drinks (especially the Padre). Afterwards, Nurse Yoo and Nurse Na couldn't get a taxi, and they go a bar that serves food on skewers. They continue to drink, and reminisce about their days in nursing school, when they frequented places like that that because they were cheap.

Nurse Yoo says to Nurse Na, "Wait, do you think you're my friend?" Nurse Na assures her "No". She start to feel sick from all the alcohol, and he helps her up. A few scenes later, she finds herself waking up in a "Love Hotel" with him. She can't believe what's happened, and flees from the room. Later, when she sees him at the nurses station, she swears to herself she'll never drink again.

Also after the "cast party", Jin-soo drives Dr. Choe home and gives her a quick kiss on the forehead when he drops her off. He later sends her a text message saying that he's sorry, but he's begun to like her. This makes her uneasy. He lays down on his sofa to sleep. His wife (Yoon-sook) sees him there, and goes to the Church for a while.

As she drives back home, she stops at a red light next to Jong-hyeok. He looks over, and notices she is crying. They drive on after the light changes, and Yoon-sook almost hits a pedestrian. Jong-hyeok apologizes to the pedestrian (he finally speaks!), and drives the distraught Yoon-sook home.

Kyeong-suk learns that another restaurant has been trashed by loan sharks who hadn't been paid. She has a sudden attack of gastritis, and Ka-eul sends her home. The girl (Min-hee) arrives home, and finds that Kyeong-suk has a high fever. She expertly applies a cold compress, and runs to get some medicine from Ka-eul. She continues to nurse Kyeong-suk, bringing her some food. Kyeong-suk asks, "What about you?" Min-hee says she'll eat later. Kyeong-suk, thawing slightly, tells her to bring another spoon.

During this, Bong-soo has learned that Min-hee's mother has settled down somewhere with another man, and so will probably never be back for Min-hee. He tells this to Ka-eul, and they wonder what they should do about her. They return home to find that not only has Min-hee nursed Kyeong-suk and prepared lunch, but done the laundry, too.
